EMV smart cards have replaced magnetic MSR cards in order to somehow complicate the life of carders. EMV cards store information on a chip in encrypted form, which in theory should complicate the skimming procedure. In addition, it is believed that smart cards are more difficult to clone - since it is problematic to quietly replace the chip on the front side of the card. However, in practice, it turned out that smart cards are susceptible to the same vulnerabilities as their magnetic predecessors, and even on a wider scale [15].
Key disadvantages of EMV smart cards:
the ability to disable the improved authorization protocol (with the transition to an old, more vulnerable one)
lack of protection against relay attack;
Lack of protection against MITM attacks with bypass of PIN code authorization for contact (see Fig. 1] and contactless
payments;
predictable random number generators transmission of confidential data in clear text
The material is designed for a prepared reader: qualified specialists from the “red team”. You should not use the techniques described here without proper authority. Carding is a serious crime
